Timber fencing is a popular option for homeowners in Brisbane and Sydney for a number of reasons. For example, when you drive to or from work, chances are you will see a lot of traditional white picket fences. Here are some reasons why timber fencing is so popular in Australia.
There is nothing like the look of a timber fence. Whether it’s a traditional picket fence or a privacy fence, timber simply looks better than any other option. Timber is a part of nature and integrates your home with nature better than any other building material. It can be finished with a clear finish for a totally natural look or it can be stained to provide the aesthetic you prefer.
Timber is an insulator, not only of heat, but of sound. If you build a privacy fence, timber will provide more privacy and less intrusion. It provides more protection of sound going both ways: your neighbours won’t hear you as easily and they won’t hear you as easily.
Timber fences are easy to build because the parts are separate and the fence is built one nail at a time. The materials are easy to transport and store. If you live on a farm, you can leave the timber in your barn and only take out the pieces you need to work with that day. The work can be hard but it can all be done by one person with no special machinery.
Timber is versatile and easy to work with. Compare this to aluminium or steel.
If a board sustains damage, you simply replace it. Other fencing materials require more extensive and more expensive repairs.
